2. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

   A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is a decimal representation of a number whose digits are eventually periodic (that is, after some place, the same sequence of digits is repeated forever); if this sequence consists only of zeros (that is if there is only a finite number of nonzero digits), the decimal is said to be terminating, and is not considered as repeating.

3. Four fours - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_fours

   Here is a set of four fours solutions for the numbers 0 through 32, using typical rules. Some alternate solutions are listed here, although there are actually many more correct solutions. The entries in blue are those that use four integers 4 (rather than four digits 4) and the basic arithmetic operations. Numbers without blue entries have no ...

4. Rounding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

   The problem was caused by the index being recalculated thousands of times daily, and always being truncated (rounded down) to 3 decimal places, in such a way that the rounding errors accumulated. Recalculating the index for the same period using rounding to the nearest thousandth rather than truncation corrected the index value from 524.811 up ...

5. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

   For divisors with multiple rules, the rules are generally ordered first for those appropriate for numbers with many digits, then those useful for numbers with fewer digits. To test the divisibility of a number by a power of 2 or a power of 5 (2 n or 5 n , in which n is a positive integer), one only need to look at the last n digits of that number.

6. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

   [7] Jeffrey Lagarias stated in 2010 that the Collatz conjecture "is an extraordinarily difficult problem, completely out of reach of present day mathematics". [8] However, though the Collatz conjecture itself remains open, efforts to solve the problem have led to new techniques and many partial results.

7. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

   The following list includes a decimal expansion and set containing each number, ordered by year of discovery. The column headings may be clicked to sort the table alphabetically, by decimal value, or by set. Explanations of the symbols in the right hand column can be found by clicking on them.

8. Decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal

   Place value of number in decimal system. The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈ d iː n ər i / [1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers (decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.

9. Digit sum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digit_sum

   The decimal digital root of any non-zero integer will be a number in the range 1 to 9, whereas the digit sum can take any value. Digit sums and digital roots can be used for quick divisibility tests : a natural number is divisible by 3 or 9 if and only if its digit sum (or digital root) is divisible by 3 or 9, respectively.
